What was Ajay Rochester doing at the Emmys? Former Biggest Loser host reveals her surprise Hollywood career

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for success stories, I must say Ajay Rochester‘s transformation from an Australian TV presenter to a casting director in Hollywood is nothing short of inspiring. Six years ago, she embarked on this journey and has since made a name for herself working on popular American reality shows.


At the 2024 Emmy Awards held in Los Angeles on Sunday, Ajay Rochester was one among many high-profile stars such as Jennifer Aniston, Selena Gomez, and Naomi Watts who graced the event.

As a devoted admirer, I’d like to share an interesting moment: The previous host of The Biggest Loser, now 55, unveiled her slender physique at a glamorous gathering, leaving many fans in awe. However, what caught my attention was the sight of this ex-Channel Ten presenter casually posing with renowned actors like Giancarlo Esposito from Breaking Bad.

Six years ago, Ajay moved from Australia to Los Angeles with the goal of launching a career as a casting director and, since then, he’s been involved in various well-known reality television programs in the United States.

Her career has seen her work on many popular programs, including Outlast, The Big Bakeover and The Great Halloween Fright Fight.

The mother-of-one attended the event to celebrate the success of American reality TV and was spotted chatting and laughing with her close friend, Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller.

During a chat with Allan and Carly on Hit Radio on Tuesday, the celebrity from Sydney shared her journey of transitioning into the role of a casting director.

Ajay shared that his work is wild and thrilling, yet he adores it! He wishes he could have spent his whole life doing this job. His friend told him he’d excel in it when he was struggling financially in LA,” (paraphrased)

‘They told me the task involved persuading people to appear on TV, promising them an unforgettable, either incredible or disastrous, experience! I responded with excitement, thinking it sounded amazing!’

She added that the current reality TV show she was working on, Outlast, in which 16 people are forced to survive in the Alaskan wilderness, was in the top ten most watched shows on Netflix, which had opened doors for her.

‘With my show in the top ten, I may well be a nominee next year,’ Ajay told Daily Mail Australia.

Ajay hails from Sydney, where he was born in 1969. He gained widespread recognition by serving as the presenter for the Australian version of ‘The Biggest Loser’ from 2006 to 2009.

On the red carpet on Sunday night, she was virtually unmissable, flaunting her figure elegantly in a lengthy sequined dress from City Chic. She stood alongside her son, Kai, as they both struck poses.

Ajay accessorised her look with a black lace choker and a matching bracelet.

At the awards event, the television personality chose to let down her long, wavy blonde hair without any styling, and opted for a minimalistic, neutral-toned makeup look.
